A Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) offers a higher level of care than traditional outpatient therapy but allows participants to return home each evening. It is often seen as a middle ground between inpatient treatment and outpatient services, providing structured support for individuals who need intensive care without the need for overnight hospitalization. PHP helps individuals work through severe mental health or addiction issues in a therapeutic environment while still allowing them to maintain some level of independence.
Who is PHP Good For?
PHP is ideal for individuals who:
- Need intensive therapeutic care but do not require 24/7 supervision.
- Have completed inpatient or residential treatment and are transitioning to a lower level of care.
- Require more support than traditional outpatient therapy can provide.
- Are experiencing acute mental health or addiction issues that need immediate and sustained therapeutic intervention.
- Want to begin integrating back into their daily routines while receiving high-level therapeutic support.
